lyrics

Every time I go out
you want to cry about being alone
I can’t go any place
with your crabby face
so I just leave you at home

Nowhere to spend the evening
quietly reading when you’re there
You’ve got a million stories
and they’re totally boring
and I can’t pretend to care

I try to be nice
But my heart can’t handle smiling all the time
Dare I
Try to say good night?
IT'S MUCH EASIER TO STAY A SELFISH BITCH

Bitter your friends are gone
you know they all moved on
you’re still here
You passively imply I should apologize
when I’m moving on in life

I’m not your babysitter
you’re a shame emitter to be clear
I won’t feel obligated to keep you elated
when you’re clinging to your fears

I try to be nice
but my heart can’t handle smiling all the time
Dare I
Try to say good night?
IT'S MUCH EASIER TO STAY A SELFISH BITCH
